My problem was that because of the aweful battery life, the pods died in the night, so I couldn't play a tone to find them in the morning. That's when I decided to just give them to a family member, who now has an Android phone, knock on wood, so I'll probably look at sending them back to Apple.

Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: Sieghard Weitzel To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2018 10:42 PM Subject: RE: New Apple Airpod are coming as well as Amazon and google competitors Hi Keith, It says in the article as follows: Kuo earlier this year predicted Apple will release a new version of the AirPods with “wireless charging support” and upgraded Bluetooth in the first quarter of 2019. Kuo says 2020 will see an even more improved model of AirPods. What exactly the possible 2019 version will bring and whether it will come out in the first 3 or 4 months of the year as some seem to think or not until the September iPhone event is anybody's guess. I assume that the price for any new version of Airpods will stay roughly the same at around $160 US and $220 Canadian and one can probably pick up the earlier model for a bit of a deal for a while after a new one comes out and until all the older ones are sold. I also think that if we start to see the current Airpods on sale at places like Best Buy, Target etc. then maybe a new one will be close. As I said, I'm in no particular hurry, I've gotten along this long without I can manage for another 6 or 8 months or a year or a year and a half. I am not a huge fan of Bluetooth so it really needs to be a good update before Apple gets my money for those. I totally like the idea of the Airpods but I don't yet like the implementation/design.

To my reading, it sounds like you may need to wait until into 2020 before the upgraded version of Air Pods is released. Mostly updated Bluetooth and possibly wireless charing in 2019. I didn’t see any mention of pricing. Was you comment about price based on current price? I’m guessing newer AirPods will be more expensive, but by how much is the question.

This has been reported on Mac Rumors by Ming-Chi Kuo, the Apple analyst from TF Securities whose "rumors" come true more often than not. I am glad I have held off so far because even if I buy Apple Airpods it sounds like waiting a bit longer may reward you with a newer, more advanced model. Whatever Amazon and Google may come up with sounds like won't come to market until the second half of 2019 so maybe I'll even wait until then to see, after all, given the price of these little guys it is not something you want to buy and then regret a few month later. The sales predictions in that article are astounding.
